Our Brand

We're always looking for new and exciting projects. We recently added our own LED cube kits to the website and are working on some other great new items. Our Sketch Pad has proven to be really popular. Not only is it fun to build, it's extremely useful. Keep an eye out for new products in the Hobby Components Range.

The recently added 4x4x4 LED cube kits we created have been extremely popular! We created these as through-hole kits so they suited a wider range of customers and it seems to have been a good move! Feel free to get in touch if you've built up the kit and have a customer video.

CH340 USB to TTL Serial Adaptor

Model HCMODU0076

Condition New

The CH340 USB to serial adaptor (HCMODU0076) makes use of the CH340 USB to serial IC to provide a low cost alternative to our popular FTDI based module. Although much cheaper this module doesn't lack in features or usability.

The CH340 USB to serial adaptor (HCMODU0076) makes use of the CH340 USB to serial IC to provide a low cost alternative to our popular FTDI based module. Although much cheaper this module doesn't lack in features or usability. Once you have installed the drivers the module will appear as a normal serial COM port on your computer making it compatible with most terminal programs and development environments such as the Arduino IDE.

The module includes a small switch which allows the voltage available at the VC (Supply output) pin to be switched between 3.3 and 5V. Data pins include TX, RX, CTS and DTR (needed for automatic reset when programming Arduino boards). These digital pins are at 5V TTL levels allowing them to be directly interfaced most 5V microcontrollers.

Please note: Driver support is currently for Microsoft Windows 32/64 bit only.
